Old SciFi and Cultural Relevance

I’ve been catching up on SciFi novels I skipped during my youth.1 While they stand up well, what impresses and saddens me is that the cultural discussions under the surface are still so relevant. I’m no literary scholar, but each book had a meaningful timeless theme that I enjoyed. I listened to each one as an Audible audiobook. Each one was superbly narrated. In fact, I’m not sure I could have followed the huge number of characters without the excellent narration.
